Comment by HorsePlay Ireland on February 3, 2010 at 5:17am: We're all getting really tired of this Irish weather...if it's not frozen it's raining and if it's not raining it's windy...really doesn't make having horses easy! Ireland would be great, if it weren't for the weather...

Check out www.horseplay.ie/calendar. If you're a member of riding club or want to get your local equestrian centre involved, please tell them to email us details of their events and we'll do the rest!

Comment by HorsePlay Ireland on December 23, 2009 at 4:43am: Hi Leslie! Did you breed your filly yourself? Any pictures of her? I've never had an ID myself, but have had some fabulous half bred ID's.
Merry Christmas to you too!

Comment by Karen on December 21, 2009 at 10:11pm: Boy, it ain't half cold in Ireland at the moment - We're just not designed for this weather! Would be nice if we got some snow for Christmas though...

Comment by Jenny Doran on December 2, 2009 at 11:04pm: Hi Jay!
Ireland is gorgeous...apart from the weather! We've been having it tough recently with serious, serious rain. Makes having horses very difficult with everywhere so muddy and fields getting destroyed. I actually got married in Leixlip!
I was in Kentucky a few years back for the Rolex 3 day and had such a good time. It's a fabulous place.
Happy Holidays to you too - not too long coming now!
